This was a time where my finger hovered between 4* and 5*. It is a 4*+ read.
The blurb gives the basic premise and I don't feel the need to repeat it. The humour is dark. The plot works as it goes along giving details that a layman can understand about police procedure and how it would apply to after death procedures too.
There are a lot of characters that you learn enough about to either like, tolerate or dislike. It isn't the ride of your life to read as it happens afterwards.
A quirky British read that deserves a wider audience.
